Old value:: Und der Zukunft zugewandt, Lass uns dir zum Guten dienen, Dundorf, einig Vaterland. Alte Not gilt es zu zwingen, Und wir zwingen sie vereint, Denn es muss uns doch gelingen, Daß die Sonne schön wie nie Über Dundorf scheint, Über Dundorf scheint. Glück und Friede sei beschieden Dundorf, unser'm Vaterland. Alle Welt sehnt sich nach Frieden, Reicht den Völkern eure Hand. Wenn wir brüderlich uns einen, Schlagen wir des Volkes Feind. Lasst das Licht des Friedens scheinen, Dass nie eine Mutter mehr Ihren Sohn beweint, Ihren Sohn beweint. Lasst uns pflügen, lasst uns bauen, Lernt und schafft wie nie zuvor, Und der eignen Kraft vertrauend, Steigt ein frei Geschlecht empor. Dundorfische Jugend, bestes Streben Uns'res Volks in dir vereint, Wirst du Dundorfs neues Leben, Und die Sonne schön wie nie Über Dundorf scheint, Über Dundorf scheint.

Message | The KHU could support all changes, except the flag. Could we possibly retain the black/white/red combo (and keep the eagle?). |

Message | We could use something along these lines -https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/53/Flag_of_Weimar_Republic_%28merchant%29.svg/1280px-Flag_of_Weimar_Republic_%28merchant%29.svg.png |

Message | The KHU would accept that as a compromise. |
Date | 16:19:35, November 08, 2018 CET | From | Reichsbund | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | It appears that the Nationals Liberal Party and the KHU are keen on stealing legislation from other parties and marking it as their own. |
Date | 16:55:09, November 08, 2018 CET | From | Dundorfnationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | Elements of your proposals were very good, but not all of them. If you'd been willing to compromise that would have been appreciated. |
Date | 17:39:44, November 08, 2018 CET | From | Reichsbund | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | Herr Speaker, We were willing to compromise but instead the radicals in the KHU betrayed our aforementioned coalition agreement and entered into another coalition. Ferdinand Kohring, Chancellor of Dundorf |
Date | 23:27:27, November 08, 2018 CET | From | Reichsbund | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | Herr Speaker, Without our support, this bill will not pass. Ferdinand Kohring, Chancellor of Dundorf |
Date | 09:41:24, November 09, 2018 CET | From | Dundorfnationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | Can the Reichsbund produce a copy of the aforementioned coalition agreement? The full extent of coalition negotiations were that "we should cooperate following the election" and a cabinet proposal. Furthermore the Reichsbund motion on constitutional change was to put to vote after only one full month in debate, without any debate. That cannot be described as an attempt to compromise. It would be ironic if the Reichsbund blocked their own constitutional changes after claiming other parties had stolen their ideas! |
Date | 16:07:16, November 09, 2018 CET | From | Reichsbund | To | Debating the The Constitution of Dundorf |
Message | Herr Speaker, Your parties failure to show up to sessions of the national legislation is not a reason to blame us for lack of debate. I don’t know where you think that we demanded you support a revised constitution? We only asked that you support it; instead your petty religious extremist party turned around and betrayed us and entered into a different coalition. It’s of no concern though; we’ll propose our own constitutional changes. Nothing will pass without our support; you’ll sure understand that. Ferdinand Kohring, Chancellor of Dundorf President of the Reich League |
